Although not particularly common in sessions, this tune has been recorded by, among others Michael Coleman and Matt Molloy. Quite a number of different settings exist, the one posted being approximately that on the Coleman Recording.

The following two settings are from an abc collection (transcriber unknown). The first, which is not dissimilar to the version above, is from Matt Molloy. The second, which differs substantially, is credited to Paul Carton(?):

It’s basically the same as the one recorded by Jackie Daly, Kevin Burke and Conal O’Grada, I believe. As *quirl* has pointed out, it’s probably related to Scots tune "The Night We Had the Goats": https://thesession.org/tunes/1393

Mary MacNamara plays the tune in the key of D. It’s recorded on her Traditional Music from East Clare, which is a must-have CD. The tune is lovely on the concertina in the lower key. On the flute it’s probably better in the key of G.

X:7 a piping setting from Tommy Reck, via his teacher John Potts, one would guess. On the old Piper’s Rock LP Jimmy O’Brien-Moran recreated the medley from a well known home recording of Tommy, with this tune followed by Corney is Coming. Another piper, Sean MacMahon, played that same pair of tunes on an old Comhaltas on Tour LP.
